Chen Dawei brought a lot of people with him, and his son Chen Fuxi was holding an account book and an abacus in his hands.
Chen Dawei felt relieved when he saw the person being pulled over from behind.
After taking a look, the man who used the crossbow last night was not afraid. Chen Dawei became even more assertive: "We agreed before that, except for the trees in your own forest, you can cut down a tree for one tael of silver. For bamboo, I will give you a cheaper price of half a tael of silver per tree."
Chen Fuxi fiddled with the abacus and calculated for a while.
Lin Youcai and his men even forgot about this. At first they were a little scared and hesitant, so they only dared to go to the mountains to cut wood instead of doing it nearby.
But later on, I don’t know what happened, but when I was with Lin Jinyue, my blood was boiling, and I had the urge to fight anyone who dared to cause trouble.
I have already built a house on the designated land, so why would I care how much silver a tree costs?
Chen Fuxi made a calculation and couldn't stop smiling. "I cut down seventy-one trees, six hundred and seventy-two bamboos. I'll give you four hundred taels."
They were all stunned by the way he looked at her demanding the debt with a righteous look on his face.
I've seen people with black hearts, but I've never seen anyone as black-hearted as this.
Without saying a word, everyone in Linjia Village picked up their hoes. There were more than 70 people, old, weak, women and children, all of them were determined.
On the way to escape famine, he had fought tigers and blind bears, so why would he be afraid of Chen Dawei?
Even if this matter were reported to the government, their village would still be in the right.
The people brought by Chen Dawei were all panicked. They had never seen such a cruel person who would attack others over a single word.
Looking at the people in Linjia Village, they don’t look like refugees at all. The men have their clothes unbuttoned, and they are all tall and strong, revealing their strong muscles.
You can tell at first glance that he's quite capable of fighting.
Chen Youfu and his men only care about eating and not being beaten. They are just thinking about how hell he would be if he beat them to death?
He must accept this money!
Chen Youfu's eyes were filled with viciousness. "You have to take the money today whether you want to or not. There are many ways to torture people. If you dare not take it, just wait for me!"
Chen Dawei said sullenly, "Don't deny your debt. My son is kind-hearted and has given you zero."
Lin Jinyue was so angry at their shameless remarks that she laughed: "Do you still have any shame? You don't want a penny of this money! If you dare to use insidious means, don't force me to take you to see the official!"
Chen Dawei laughed sarcastically and kicked over the unfinished street lamp. "See the authorities? Fine, go ahead and report to the authorities. Do you think I'm afraid of you?!"
"My son-in-law is a fifth-rank general of Ningyuan. The county officials have to kneel down to him when they see him."
And the next moment, everyone in Linjia Village pointed their crossbows at Chen Dawei and others.
More than thirty strong men took out their crossbows in unison, with a fierce look in each of their eyes, as if they were ready to fight to the death with them.
If dozens of crossbow arrows were aimed at his head, wouldn't he be shot into a hedgehog? !
Chen Dawei's legs went weak again.
"Bang" he fell to his knees.
Lin Jinyue said with disdain: "Get out of here now, don't dirty our place."
The people brought by Chen Dawei were worried that Lin Jinyue and the others would really shoot arrows, so they were really scared and just carried Chen Dawei and ran away.
Lin Jinyue felt sorry for the street lamps. They were made of rice paper with a lot of oil in them. She bought the oil at a high price, and now it was all spilled.
The villagers were also very angry.
Lin Youcai, who is always timid and cowardly, even said, "If he dares to come again next time, I'll shoot him in the head!"
Some people also expressed regret that these crossbows were just for show and most of them were only good-looking but not practical, and were usually given to children to play with.
If there really were so many crossbows, they could walk around Yunhe Village with ease!
Lin Jinyue smiled and said, "Calm down, do what you need to do. Uncle Wang is busy recently, let him do it later."
Lin Jinyue thought that she would have to go to Shawan County to find General Gu tomorrow.
The next morning, Lin Jinyue took her brother to Shawan County.
Unexpectedly, the boat had not been rowed out for long when Lin Jinyue felt a coldness on the soles of her feet. There was a hole in a relatively hidden place on the bottom of the boat.
Water is bubbling out now!
Lin Jinyue quickly took the small wooden bucket and poured out the water, while Lin Xueqing quickly rowed the boat back.
Lin Jinyue's shoes and trouser legs were soaked, and she felt very uncomfortable stepping on the sandy ground covered with mud. The first thing she did when she got home was to change into clean clothes.
She was furious: "These bastards actually smashed our boat!"
Lin Xueqing and Lin Shucheng's faces turned pale.
Can this matter just be let go like this?
The few strong men in the village, each carrying a hoe and a shovel, walked together towards Chen Dawei's home in Yunhe Village.
Arriving at Chen's house, Lin Xueqing kicked open the door of Chen Dawei's house.
The solid wooden door panels that the two men had explained seemed like tofu dregs to him, breaking into pieces at the slightest touch.
Everyone in the Chen family was still cursing angrily inside, but when the door was kicked open, they were all stunned.
When they realized what was happening, they wanted to fight Lin Xueqing to the death.
After all, there are so many people in their Yunhe Village, and Lin Xueqing and his group are only a dozen or so.
Chen Youfu shouted outside, and the people from Yunhe Village all came over to look around, but no one dared to step forward.
Lin Xueqing alone knocked down more than a dozen people from the Chen family.
The other men holding hoes were stunned for a moment.
Is Tiezhu so powerful?
So what are they here for?
When they thought about how this scoundrel Chen Dawei had robbed the boat they had bought for 150 taels of silver, the anger in their hearts surged up.
A few men came to the Chen family and smashed everything they saw.
He didn't say anything, but just hit the child hard in the face, with such ferocity that the child was scared and didn't dare to cry.
Of course, she avoided the expensive things and smashed everything that could be smashed, such as the wooden bed, tables, chairs and benches.
Several men from the Chen family were lying on the ground crying, and the women and children did not dare to come forward.
Lin Xueqing has always had a good temper, but Chen Dawei went too far. He dared to drill a hole in their small boat today. When they come back and build a big boat, these black-hearted people won't be able to find it even if they drill a few holes.
If they went to find an island far away, all their lives would be lost.
Lin Xueqing will let them know today that they are not holding hoes for show. If anyone dares to provoke them, they will really attack them.
Several men in the Chen family were beaten so hard that they cried out in pain.
But Lin Xueqing would not hit them in the face. Every punch he made would hit the flesh, causing them severe pain but not causing any death.
The Chen family was also devastated.
Chen Youfu wet his pants and knelt down with snot and tears: "Stop hitting me, stop hitting me, it hurts, I know I was wrong, next time, I will never do that again..."
Many people from Linjia Village were looking outside, but no one dared to stop them.
This group of people is really cruel.
When Lin Jinyue heard that they had beaten someone up, she felt relieved.
Just beating him up won't solve the problem. Chen Youfu dares to be so arrogant, isn't it because he has General Ningyuan as his backer?
She knew that Gu Shao's rank was not low, so Lin Jinyue thought that she had to go find Gu Shao.
Lin Jinyue moved out the small boat that Lu Guangyao and his friends left behind before they left, and went to Shawan County with her brother.
